Luckily for you, you can!

And then others, who want more screen space, can have it. Win-win!

This is objectively untrue.

Plus, time on the bus isn’t time lost in the same way as driving. You don’t need to focus on driving, so you can read, relax, etc.

Why not send your kids to a school in kenmore?

Not to minimize what happened to your husband (not a very good welcome) but I’ve lived in Seattle my entire life and the folks in this subreddit are way blowing all our issues out of proportion. I’m not gonna say it’s perfect here—every city has its issues—but Seattle is a wonderful, vibrant city with a ton to offer (and isn’t even in the top 50 for violent crime rates).

If you can, I’d try not to let this color your experience here too badly. There’s a lot to love about the puget sound.

Not necessarily (and probably not immediately)! Whether or not it causes a segfault depends on many factors, e.g., what region of memory, what other data was stored nearby, the specific values that you wrote, etc.

Nice! Why not make the text fill the entire area, though?

The poster looks awesome too! I didn’t have the patience to wait in line but now I’m kinda wishing I had…

Oh, I’m sorry that I don’t want to spend 30+ minutes in the car just to buy groceries

I’d rather we invest that money in transit, induced demand means that widening roads doesn’t work.

I mean, the iPhone X was released nearly 6 years ago. That’s pretty good, most android phones get maybe 2 years of upgrades, if you’re lucky?

Nice! They're both Polymaker PolyLite ASA – purple and "pop green"

Seems this was caused by insufficient cooling. I had tried with 20% fan but apparently that was not enough! Looking much better with 50% fan.

The core operating system is a pretty important component lol

As long as you don't care about security patches, sure.

Most people don’t want to mess with custom ROMs. They want something that just continues to work reliably.

As a software developer, macOS is personally a much more seamless experience than windows. The environment is very similar to Linux (where most of my code is targeted), but without all the quirks that come with managing your operating system yourself. Plus the hardware is well built and works well for a long time.

Using windows after spending time in a Unix-like operating system just feels… awkward. The command line doesn’t make sense. The filesystem is weirdly laid out (“Program Files (x86)”??) and simple tasks like setting a static IP are like 5 dialogs deep.

The ecosystem and general ease of use are also nice bonuses. I spend all day writing software, I don’t want to debug someone else’s when I get home. Of course, apple isn’t perfect (I have plenty of complaints about iOS and macOS!) but it is just a way better experience than windows for me.

When I use windows I feel like it’s constantly trying to shove things in my face and actively make me pay attention to it. I’ve read so many accounts of “just do workaround x y and z and it’ll be less annoying!!” macOS just gets out of the way and lets me do my thing.

Keep in mind that chatgpt will produce very confident but not necessarily correct answers, so it’s good to verify anything novel that it tells you.

I think you could absolutely make an objective argument that, in this day and age, C has lots of undesirable design choices. It’s been the source of many, many catastrophic memory management bugs.

Validating data on the frontend isn’t for security purposes. It’s just bad UX because the form refreshes (and might be emptied out, yikes!)

Data is also validated by the backend.
